Axia Energia: new tickers on B3 and NYSE
Axia Energia—Eletrobras’ new name—debuted its tickers on B3 this Monday: AXIA3 (common), AXIA5 (preferred A) and AXIA6 (preferred B). On the NYSE, the company’s ADRs now trade as AXIA (common) and AXIA PR (preferred), replacing EBR and EBR.B. Axia marked the change with a bell‑ringing ceremony at B3 around 9 a.m. (Brasília). At 10:45 a.m., AXIA3 rose 1.84% to R$59.76 while AXIA6 advanced 1.57% to R$62.92. InfoMoney

The rebrand follows Eletrobras’ privatization (2022) and caps a broader identity shift that the company says emphasizes financial discipline and operational excellence—“Axia” references “value” and “axis.” InfoMoney
Kepler Weber (KEPL3): GPT puts R$11 on the table

Oi: bankruptcy ruling with provisional continuity of services
In the most dramatic development of the day, the 7th Business Court of Rio de Janeiroconverted Oi’s court‑supervised reorganization into bankruptcy, citing the company’s “technical insolvency.” Judge Simone Gastesi Chevrand ordered an orderly liquidation of assets to maximize recovery to creditors and authorized provisional continuity of telecom services under a court‑appointed administrator to avoid disruptions.

In a separate decision, the court maintained the recovery proceedings for Oi subsidiaries Serede and Tahto, noting these units have conditions to recover independently of the parent. InfoMoney
Earlier in the session—before the ruling became public—OIBR3 had already been sliding on reports that the court‑appointed management described an “insolvency state”; by around 11:45 a.m., OIBR3 was down nearly 18%. Money Times
